During my visits to the an academy there I found tourists piling huge suitcase - 2- or 3 on the back of the coolies. Since my talk was at the training institute for IAS (top civil service of India) I raised the issue and asked how can the academy and the course learners be sensitised to issues public service if everyone turns blind eye to the horrible exploitation. Child labour too was employed at construction there. In the bitter cold the workers were not given a cup of tea at least once. The workers with cement bags on back climbed from the godown to the site.Do you know who was the Director of the Academy then Yugandhar!!! Celebrated as pro-downtrodden which &#39;quality&#39; gets mentioned in his sons&#39; intros. As Yugandhar was out I took up the issue with Dy Director. the DD&quot; WIFE came to me and fumed &quot;There is injustice throughout this country. Do you have to raise the issue here? I also wrote about it Y&#39;s mentor Shankaran. Needless to say NONE of the visiting guest faculties had problems with the exploitation. More importantly they did not want to be off the academy list and tahe detail out of their biodata.<br /> . Sheela Barsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10859263868695413119noreply@blogger.com
